Abstract

A method for determining overlap between search terms in distinct elements in data collected from a number of sources. The method involves receiving a first search term, accessing a first hyperloglog sketch of the first search term and a second hyperloglog sketch of a second search term, and determining a degree of overlap between the first search term and the second search term based on the first hyperloglog sketch of the first search term and a second hyperloglog sketch of a second search term. Respective hyperloglog sketches of additional search terms can be accessed, and respective degrees of overlap between the first search term and the additional search terms can be determined. Respective correlation values can be assigned based on the respective degrees of overlap. Search results can be organized according to the respective correlation values in order to prioritize search terms having higher correlation values.
